I am still really worried. I have read a in few websites that wet cupping could b a HIV risk. He used hand bacteria alcohol to clean the edge of the cups not sure if he used it inside the cup. He also used a scapel to prick me I am sure that was new cause I saw him open it in front of me.
The fear is growing day by day.

I have no idea what "wet cupping" is either. Could you explain to us why it is not an HIV risk.
At present there is nothing known that will kill HIV. I'm sorry, but your belief that alcohol will is incorrect.
